Comix, Manhattan’s most anticipated live-performance multi-use comedy venue, will open its doors Thursday, September 14th, with an exclusive star- studded, red-carpet grand opening featuring a line-up of the biggest names in comedy today. Josh Blue, just crowned NBC’s “Last Comic Standing,” will make his New York City debut alongside comedic fire-starters David Spade, Kathy Griffin, Sarah Silverman, the unpredictable Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, and Flight of the Conchords for an unforgettable night of hilarity. Bobby Collins, co-owner of Comix and one of the most successful stand-up comedians in the industry, will also be headlining.

Comix is located at 353 W. 14th St. at Ninth Ave., 212-524-2500, in the Meatpacking District, the hottest neighborhood for Manhattan nightlife.

Additionally, the showroom at Comix is designed with full TV-studio capabilities, completely wired and ready to host future live broadcasts and tapings.

Open seven days a week, Comix will not only showcase national headline comedians with a stand-up format, but will also be a showcase for burgeoning talent in the sketch, improv and alternative comedy arenas. For more information on Comix, visit www.comixny.com.
